As soon as the idea crossed his mind, Black Tiger shook his head in disbelief.
No, if it were someone from the Upper Realm, only the Three Upper Sects, those great families, and the mysterious Qianchen and Xuanji Pavilion would possess such strength.
The first group he excluded was Qianchen Pavilion.
It is said that the Thousand Dust Pavilion Master, Chen Xin, is unfathomable and never leaves the pavilion; in the Upper Realm, no one has ever seen his face.
He'd rather believe Fang Dong killed Zhou Shi than mistake the people in front of him for members of the Thousand Dust Pavilion...
However, only someone from the upper realm could possess such an ability to kill one of his team members without anyone noticing.
Thinking of this, his gaze towards Chen Xin and the other two changed slightly, and his tone softened:
"I don't know why the three of you are here, but I suppose you are from the Upper Realm. Since we are all from the Upper Realm, why should we let some people from the Lower Realm spoil our harmony? If you don't mind, you can come with us. Our clan will certainly treat you as honored guests."
Black Tiger's idea was simple: he felt that Chen Xin and the other two must have something to do with staying here, and who knows what good things they didn't know about.
Therefore, he also had the idea of winning them over and getting a share of the profits. Moreover, these three were quite powerful, and it was not advisable to make them his enemies.
Upon hearing Black Tiger's words, Xuan Qing and Xuan Jiu exchanged a glance and burst into laughter.
Black Tiger was puzzled by their sudden laughter and couldn't help but ask:
What are you laughing at?
Before Xuanqing and Xuanjiu could reply, the man who had previously thought he understood his elder brother well stepped forward, raised his head, and said:
"Brother, why waste your breath talking to them? Let's just storm in and arrest them!"
In return, he received a sharp glance from Black Tiger:
"What do you know!"
He withdrew his gaze and looked again at Chen Xin and the others. Seeing that they remained calm and composed, seemingly not taking them seriously at all, his tone became even more sincere:
"We are from the Black Dragon Clan. We have descended to the mortal realm to search for someone. Would you three be so kind as to allow us to enter?"
That's right, only those from the upper realms can achieve this posture.
Seeing that they did not respond for a long time, Black Tiger also realized that the other party was not someone to be trifled with. He immediately softened his tone and even changed the purpose of his visit to the human world.
Unable to gauge the other party's strength, he was unwilling to engage in conflict.
Xuan Qing sneered and finally replied:
"You can leave now. You're not welcome here. And the person you're looking for isn't here."
Looking for someone?
They called their arrest experiment a search for missing persons, which sounds quite grand.
Xuan Jiu didn't speak, but looked at him coldly, just like Xuan Qing.
As for Chen Xin, he maintained his stern smile, seemingly looking at Hei Hu, but in reality, no one was in his eyes.
Black Tiger pondered for a moment, then cupped his hands and said:
"In that case, we'll take our leave. We apologize for the inconvenience."
He couldn't see through the man's strength. Although he was always smiling, he couldn't sense any real smile in his eyes. In fact... meeting those eyes made him tremble to his very core.
His intuition told him that the man was not someone to be trifled with.
Therefore, he took the initiative to back down.
...
On the way, the person who had been talking finally spoke up and asked:
"Big brother, are we just leaving like this? We finally found a place for humans from the lower realm to hide, are we just going to leave like this?"
Their Black Dragon Clan isn't like this... When has their leader ever been afraid? Besides, those three people, apart from being a little pale, didn't seem any different. Why did their leader not only give them a friendly look but even choose to leave directly...?
"Shut up, can't you see how annoyed your brother is right now?"
Another person interrupted the first one. The first person looked up and realized that his boss's face was dark and his brows were furrowed, as if he was suppressing something.
Suddenly, Black Tiger fell straight forward, just like Zhou Shi before him. The only difference was that he was still breathing, but his face was ashen when he fell, as if he had been contaminated by something strange.
"Boss, what's wrong?"
"What's wrong, boss?"
For a moment, his men panicked and didn't know what to do.
"It must be those three from earlier! I found it strange that Zhou Shi suddenly collapsed, but now my brother is like this too. We haven't encountered anyone else besides them. It must be them who did this, trying to harm our brother and our Black Dragon Clan!"
One of the men in the group suddenly remembered something and said angrily.
As soon as he spoke, everyone remembered what had happened before and, considering Black Tiger's attitude towards them, they all understood that it was Chen Xin and the other two who wanted to kill their Black Dragon Clan...
"Yes! It must have been them. We're going back now! We must avenge our brother!"
"That's right, that's right! We Black Dragons are not to be trifled with. Anyone who tries to harm us will pay the price!"
"Let's go, let's go now!"
At that moment, many people wanted to go back the way they came and settle accounts with Chen Xin and the other two.
"etc!"
The voice wasn't loud, but it was extremely penetrating. For a moment, everyone stopped to look at him, including the few who were about to take a step.
"What, you're not scared and don't dare to go? Now that our eldest brother is in this state, are we just going to sit idly by and do nothing?"
"Yeah, Qi Jin, I've never seen you this cowardly before. Now that you've met a few unusual people in the lower realm, you're scared like this? Are you even still one of our Black Dragon Clan?"
"If you won't go, we will! We want to avenge our elder brother and the deceased Zhou Shi!"
Ignoring Qi Jin's attempts to dissuade them, the group was determined to return and seek revenge.
